Laing Galleries, Toronto

Notes:
Edward Seago has been celebrated as a quintessential twentieth century painter of British landscape since his first and very successful exhibition at Colnaghi gallery in London in 1945. Seago studied under Sir John Arnesby Brown, and was influenced by the Norwich School of painters and British forebears such as John Constable. His fine paintings include rural and marine subjects, most often located, as is this bucolic scene, in and around the County of Norfolk on the east coast of England. Seago also traveled widely throughout his career and became equally well-known for his paintings of cities and harbours in Europe, the Far East and locations as far away as Antarctica. His representation for many years by Laing Galleries in Toronto provided an entree into many established Canadian collections. A recent comprehensive monograph, Edward Seago by James Russell, was published in 2014.
